On the road..

It's the time of year where many of our classes head out on the road to either present what they have learned, or to experience what they've learned in a new way.  Trips present so many unique opportunities and in the lives of students are often the most memorable experiences of school.  Not only do they get up close and personal with the learning material, but they get to solidify and strengthen class friendships and bonds in a new way.  This kind of learning has given many educators over the years pause to think "Maybe we should do education differently..."  How can we harness these excellent learning experiences more frequently?
As we continually consider ways to better teach and learn, we find often that we are striving to recover relationships:  Relationship with God, one another, the world - a yearning for what we enjoyed before the Fall.....
As we walk along - experience deeply God's handiwork, struggle with how our world is broken, long for and share hope in redemption and grace... as we take hold of God's story, our relationships can be reclaimed  just as Christ claimed us as his own.
As we travel, learn, and experience, pray that our relationship with God, others, and the world may be rekindled and strengthened.
